The trigger to lock throttle seems like a great way to get a usable yaw with practice - it would likely only be slowly shifting up or down while doing it.
In practice it will likely be shifting down as the center of mass is moved though.

Curved circular camera holder? Genius!

I may need to consult my local hackerspace to get one printed in the future

Thinner the better though really, Is there some way to measure the weight of what you 3d print?

Very interesting take on throttle control, I'll be interested to try it out when I get home - thanks for the write up about it!

Have had three fpv flights so far. Getting progressively longer between crashing it to the ground. I think something odd may happening while charging now. About 5 minutes into charging, the green light stays fully green now. In other words, I don't seem to get a full charge. I try to fly it and only...

No shutdown pin in use on mine yet omw. A thought from the products specs page: The SHDN pin can be driven low (under 0.4 V) to power down the regulator and put it in a low-power state....

If so, the camera on that is listed as 1gram (excluding the cabling).

That's great news to hear Billybag

I pulled apart everything, diagnosing cabling and signal troubles. http://i.imgur.com/GevKpHX.jpg Have got it working on the breadboard, now am about to introduce the step up converter and fiddle with that. I think using the stepup to give me 3.3v probably wasn't enough. I'm going to try 4v, and the...
